alpha-thalassemia, HbS, and beta-globin gene cluster haplotypes in two Afro-Uruguayan sub-populations from northern and southern Uruguay

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2006
Hemoglobinopathies are the most common monogenic disorders worldwide; however, they have never been systematically studied from a genetic perspective in Uruguay. In this study, we determined the frequencies of hemoglobin variants in Afro-Uruguayans.

Lack of evidence for decreased protein stability in the 2397 (Met) haplotype of the leucine rich repeat kinase 2 protein implicated in Parkinson’s disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Missense mutations in the leucine rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) gene are the leading genetic cause of autosomal dominant familial Parkinson’s disease.

HLA-G Haplotypes Are Differentially Associated with Asthmatic Features

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-G, a HLA class Ib molecule, interacts with receptors on lymphocytes such as T cells, B cells, and natural killer cells to influence immune responses.

Mitochondrial DNA lineages of Italian Giara and Sarcidano horses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Giara and Sarcidano are 2 of the 15 extant native Italian horse breeds with limited dispersal capability that originated from a larger number of individuals. The 2 breeds live in two distinct isolated locations on the island of Sardinia. To determine the

Boosting Haplotype Inference with Local Search

open access: yes, 2008
. A very challenging problem in the genetics domain is to infer haplotypes from genotypes. This process is expected to identify genes affecting health, disease and response to drugs.

Origin and Distribution of the VRN-A1 Exon 4 and Exon 7 Haplotypes in Domesticated Wheat Species

open access: yesAgronomy, 2018
The high adaptive potential of modern wheat to a wide range of environmental conditions is determined by genetic changes during domestication. Genetic diversity in VRN1 genes is a key contributor to this adaptability.

Short communication: Characterization of the genome-wide linkage disequilibrium in 2 divergent selection lines of dairy cows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The objective of this study was to describe results of a genome-wide map of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) and assess the linkage disequilibrium (LD) level in 2 divergent selection lines of dairy cows. DNA extracted from 299 Holstein cows was used

Mitochondrial DNA discriminates distinct population of two deadly snakes (Reptilia: Elapidae) in Northeast India

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
The DNA data of Indian snakes are scanty in the global database, especially from the northeastern states. The present study generated the mitochondrial Cytochrome b gene information of two morphologically identified deadly elapid species from Mizoram ...

Phase Transition in Sexual Reproduction and Biological Evolution

open access: yes, 2008
Using Monte Carlo model of biological evolution we have discovered that populations can switch between two different strategies of their genomes' evolution; Darwinian purifying selection and complementing the haplotypes. The first one is exploited in the

Allelic Variation in Maize Malate Dehydrogenase 7 Shapes Promoter Methylation and Banded Leaf and Sheath Blight Resistance

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study maize chloroplastic malate dehydrogenase7 (ZmMDH7), is identified as a Rhizoctonia solani resistance gene in maize. ZmMDH7 is regulated by transcription factor ZmWRKY44 via pathogens challenge to elevate mitochondrial ROS and SA signaling pathway.
